Among other reasons, Open Source software packages, even for large well used packages, that have hundreds of thousands more users than Elecraft could ever dream of, (like OpenOffice, oh wait, that is dead now, I mean LibreOffice), have times when there are no maintainers...

I would like to avoid this with my Elecraft, so Open Source is not the answer here... In fact, I might have not purchased my K3 if it were Open Sourced... The K-Line would turn into a science experiment if it were Open Sourced.

I also run Linux, as my main OS, and love Open Sourced software, but the K3 is not the item for it...

73s and thanks,
Dave
